Is Mitt Romney Too Smart for the Republican Base?
Posted by TJ Walker in Analysis, Body Language, CEOs/Financial, Government & Politics, Video, Workplace, Worst Speaker of the Day on December 9, 2011
A lot has been written about Mitt Romney’s flip flopping on important philosophical and public policy issues, but does he have a greater problem with the GOP electorate? Perhaps Romney appears too smart, as in the intellectual variety.
You don’t have to be Bill Maher (he calls the GOP the “stupid party”) to acknowledge that during the last dozen years or so the party has not rewarded intellectualism. George W. Bush in 2000 liked to convey the idea that he was so unworldly that he’d never left the country (even though he had.)
The Herman Cain Show
Posted by TJ Walker in Analysis, Best Speaker of the Day, blogging, Body Language, CEOs/Financial on October 20, 2011
Someone has to say this. Herman Cain isn’t running for President, and, contrary to popular belief, he isn’t running a book-selling campaign. Herman Cain is running a full-fledged Minstrel Show on Prime Time TV and it’s hideously embarrassing.
I couldn’t stop cringing while watching him on CNN’s Piers Morgan last night. Half of me expects Herman Cain to come out on stage at the next Republican Debate while eating watermelon, chomping fried chicken and pronouncing the word “ask” as “ax.”

CORRECTION:
“Correction: I made a blunder in this video. I incorrectly stated that Pawlenty endorsed Perry. In fact, Pawlenty endorsed Romney. I will try not to make such simple, unforced errors in the future.”

7 Communications Lessons From NJ Gov. Chris Christie That Every Democrat Needs To Learn -Media Training
Posted by TJ Walker in Analysis, Body Language, CEOs/Financial on August 5, 2011
You might think that Chris Christie is nothing more than Ann Coulter force fed a Duncan Donuts factory, but the guy is a fantastic, powerful communicator. Your first image of him might be of the demagogue vilifying a school teacher or defending the indefensible use of a state helicopter to attend his son’s ballgame but if you haven’t seen Christie defend his selection of a Muslim American to a high level judgeship, then I beg you, please watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y83z552NJaw
If it’s one thing every single Democrat and liberal can agree on it’s that Republicans and conservatives are the masters at attacking Democrats for supporting unpopular or minority positions or people and putting Progressives on the defensive. Republicans have destroyed many Democrats in the polls by making them appear wimpy and cowardly when defending unpopular decisions or positions. Christie reveals exactly how Liberals should defend themselves for maximum political benefit.

Does Murdoch’s Apology Measure Up?
Posted by TJ Walker in Analysis, Body Language, CEOs/Financial, Crisis Communications on July 18, 2011
This apology would have been a great first step in Murdoch’s crisis communication strategy. Instead, it comes 12 days after the scandal broke and when most people had already made up their minds on whether there was wrongdoing or not.
Murdoch’s legacy will forever be painted with the brush of this scandal. The printed apology he commissioned was heartfelt and sincere but it came almost two weeks into the scandal. The resonance and meaning of the apology would have been greater if this was an immediate reaction and not one done out of being backed into a corner.

Are beauty pageants sexist relics from the past, or are they modern tools for empowering women?
Posted by TJ Walker in Analysis, Best Speaker of the Day, Body Language, celebrities on July 12, 2011
Actually, they are both. I’ve just returned from judging my second European beauty pageant and I can tell you that people are as fascinated as ever by beauty contests. Some people love them. Others despise them. I seem to be in the minority in that I really don’t have strong views either way.
To me, the fascinating thing about beauty pageants (beyond the pretty young women, of course) is that they do two things highly relevant to future business success:
